UCL Fantasy Squad Rules: 15 Players and a 100.0 Budget
Champions League fantasy setup explained: 15 players, 100.0 budget, three per club, and position-based scoring.
Published September 10, 2026
UEFA Champions League fantasy builds a squad of 15 players under a 100.0 budget, with a maximum of three players from any single club. Your starting eleven follows a formation like 1-4-4-2 or 1-3-5-2, and your bench holds four players who can be manually substituted in if a starter does not play. You can only substitute a starter who did not appear, not one who played badly, so bench ordering matters.
Scoring is position-based. Goalkeepers and defenders earn six points for a goal, midfielders five and forwards four. Assists are worth three. A clean sheet is worth four points for goalkeepers and defenders. Players also earn appearance points and lose points for cards and goals conceded. Captains score double, so your armband should go to the highest-ceiling attacker in the biggest mismatch.
Because only three players per club are allowed, you cannot stack one superteam. Spread your budget across two or three elite sides and fill the rest with value picks: attacking fullbacks, penalty takers and clean-sheet defenders from organized teams.
